Long Beach fashion designer Angela Luna left the urban surroundings of her city for a vacation that took her to British Columbia, where she spent some time in nature, learned about the indigenous cultures of the area and ate a lot of local food.

The new travel docu-series takes “inspirational Americans” on journeys throughout Canada is now streaming via Amazon Prime Video.

Luna, who is featured in the second episode, refers to herself as a “solution-based” fashion designer known for creating clothing that addresses larger social issues such as a jacket that turns into a tent.

She runs a fashion company called ADIFF, which also gives clothing to refugees and the homeless, and at the age of 23 she was featured in Forbes’ “30 under 30” list.

For the show, the 24-year-old traveled to the Haida Gwaii, a rugged archipelago off British Columbia’s west coast where she visited food markets; hopped on boats to visit islands where she stood at the foot of 1,000-year-old cedar trees; and met inspirational local women such as a weaver and a Haida Watchman, who act as cultural guides for island visitors.

We asked her about her trip and her multipurpose jacket.

Q: First of all, what’s a tent jacket?

A: It’s a trench coat-style jacket that turns into a tent that can fit one or two people. It was originally designed when I was looking at the refugee crisis and saw the need for people to have temporary shelter while they’re on foot (so they can have a shelter while on the move).

Q: The show you where on is called “Vacations of the Brave,” but you were never really in any danger during your trip. So why is it called that?

A: I guess there are some activities that other people in the show have done that were a little more physically strenuous and challenging. But when they reached out to me it was casting for American heroes, people who are changing the status quo, taking a step outside normal life and really being brave at taking a chance and doing something amazing in the world. I guess I would say I’m brave in that sense.

A: Oh my gosh I think it was this dessert mochi that had strawberries on the inside and we all got different flavors and we shared them and they were incredibly delicious. I wish I could have them every day…fresh-made mochi with love was definitely one of the best things that I had.
